The moonlight shines quietly and coldly, shining on the old neighborhood that has fallen into dead silence.

In the blacksmith's shop, the charcoal fire on the stove was still baking, and from time to time stubborn sparks jumped out.

Violent wheezing spread.

Fang Lang was holding his sword, the palm of his left hand was constantly dripping blood, he was gasping, but there was a smile on his face.

In the distance, the young man was lying on the ground, his eyebrows and cheeks were open, and he looked at the starry night sky a little blankly, as if he was reminiscing about the taste of failure.

Slight footsteps sounded.

The old man walked out of the shop, his waist was straight, and he was carrying obsidian, a little surprised, but also a little appreciative.

As soon as he shook his hand, the two porcelain vases shot at Fang Lang and the boy respectively.

The boy stood up from the ground and caught the porcelain vase.

"This is a healing medicine, the effect is very good, rest assured, it will not affect the scientific expedition."

The old man said lightly.

The young man directly poured out a pill and swallowed it, and the skin and fleshy brain instantly scabbed.

"I lost."

The young man was also crisp, his burly and swollen body, shrinking slightly.

Fang Lang grinned: "Accept." ”

"I don't know what my brother's surname is? We don't know each other, meeting is fate, and our waves like to communicate with geniuses the most. ”

And the honest young man scratched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, how can the loser be qualified to leave his name." ”

"When you get to the imperial capital, we will know each other."

Fang Lang's face froze, don't, what kind of crooked reasoning are you, why is the loser not qualified to leave his name?

Then, the boy ignored Fang Lang, picked up the black knife, turned into the blacksmith shop, and continued to use the sledgehammer to hit the sword embryo on the stove.

Fang Lang was helpless, swallowed the pill given by the old man, but he was not worried that the pill was poisonous, after all, with the strength of the old man, there was no need to use poisoning to kill him, after swallowing the pill for a few breaths, the injury on the palm of his hand began to improve, and the effect of this pill was indeed extraordinary.

The old man handed the obsidian sword to Fang Lang.

"Yes, the sword moves are very solid, and it should have been a lot of hardships to practice the sword, right?"

Fang Lang was full of sword cocoons, coupled with the solid sword moves just now, the old man had a very good sense of Fang Lang, he was a down-to-earth, motivated, and hard-working honest child.

It's much better than Wen Ting's goods who don't pay back the money.

Fang Lang took the obsidian, this sword was as black as ink, and the moonlight shone on it, and it couldn't reflect any brilliance, and it was a little heavy.

"Senior, what is the price of this sword?"

The old man waved his hand and turned into the blacksmith shop: "You look at it." ”

"The old man's sword is only sold to those who have passed the test, and as for the price, it is arbitrary."

"As long as you don't be like Wen Ting's kid."

When Fang Lang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, no wonder at the beginning, when this old-timer heard Wen Ting's name, his black face was like constipation.

It turns out that Wen Jiaoxi is a real pit.

How could Fang Lang be as pitty as Wen Jiaoxi?

Spending money, Fang Lang is serious.

Walked to an empty table and felt moved.

The 25,000 Tang gold coins piled up in the space ring were thrown out one after another.

Whoa, whoa!

The moon shines brightly, the golden light shines, and the whole neighborhood ...... It seems to be all lit up!

"Senior, this is 25,000 Tang Dynasty gold coins, this obsidian sword, the price is extraordinary, it can't be measured by money! Thank you seniors for the sword! ”

Fang Lang held the obsidian and arched his hand.

Hiding the two swords in the sword box, hiding the two swords in the box, he turned to leave, and instantly disappeared in the hazy night.

The neighborhood fell silent.

In the blacksmith shop, the young man wielding the hammer froze, looked at the stacked gold coins on the table, and swallowed his saliva, okay...... That's a lot of gold!

The old man turned around, and without the slightest smoke and fireworks, the table full of gold coins disappeared.

"Wei Sheng, this Fang Gongzi, a very down-to-earth person, I heard that many people in Chang'an want to discount his legs? When you go to Chang'an, you can help him. ”

The old man said.

"Got it, teacher."

The boy dropped the hammer and bowed his head.

The old man returned to the rocking chair, which creaked loudly, and even hummed a small tune happily in his nasal cavity.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a hard-working, down-to-earth and honest child.

……

……

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing a Practice-related Spend and receive a random reward, which has been distributed to the inventory. ”

Walk through the quiet and cold streets.

Fang Lang's mind resounded with the prompt sound of the system.

"Ding! Friendly reminder, the experience points are full, and the level increases. ”

Everything was expected by him.

Bring up the system panel.

Host: Fang Lang

Cultivation: Nine-stage swordsman

Grade: LV4

Experience: 0/100000

Root bone: 36 (white)

Cultivation funds: 50,000 gold coins, 300 lower grade spirit crystals, 2 medium grade spirit crystals (only for cultivation projects)

Items: Dash Card ×1, Cyan Reward Egg × 1

Bonding objects: Ni Wen (60%), Jiang Linglong (60%), Liu Bubai (60%), vacant (60%)

Unique Passive: Matters related to the cultivation of the subject of the bond can be rewarded with additional rewards

……

This time the upgrade is mediocre and not too exciting.

The degree of fetters has not increased, it is still 60%, and Fang Lang has some regrets.

However, Fang Lang didn't care too much about this upgrade, what he cared more about was the cultivation in the "Yunling Pagoda" tomorrow.

Challenging extreme missions in the tower, as well as ...... No matter how much aura you suck, you can turn it into an experience of wool picking!

Seemingly...... I'll have to work harder tomorrow!

"System, smash the eggs!"

Fang Lang Road.

Smash the cyan bonus egg in your inventory.

As the golden light spreads, rewards emerge.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining [Triple Kicker Card], [Leverage Card], and [Root Bone Card]. ”

Well?

Looking at the reward for smashing eggs this time, Fang Lang frowned.

This time, the cyan reward egg seems to be a general reward, only a triple-booster card, not a five-fold, it's a pity.

In addition, a new card [Root Bone Card] has been released.

"[Root Bone Card]: A permanent card (which can be overwritten), after use, you can change the host's root bone data at the surface and causal level."

Fang Lang's eyes shrank slightly.

Permanent Cards!

It's a baby!

This card ...... Seems to be something!

Fang Lang didn't study this [Root Bone Card] on the street, but rushed to Fang Mansion.

Back at Fang's Mansion, Lao Fang went to the Teaching Workshop Division to socialize, so Fang Lang went straight back to his house.

Fang Lang was slightly excited.

Root bone ...... It's always been a pain in his heart!

In the scientific examination, with such a backbone, there is no qualification for extra points, and the competitiveness alone is much weaker.

The most important thing is that Fang Lang is still a little worried, his performance is too good, with the root bones, it looks weird, and he is seen to be tired!

Therefore, the appearance of this [Root Bone Card] is really timely!

Suppress the excitement in your heart.

Fang Lang took a deep breath and said, "System, use the [Root Bone Card]." ”

"Ding! [Root Bone Card] will change the root bone data from the surface and causal level, and the root bone data will be permanently changed after use, if you want to change it, you need to wait for the next use of [Root Bone Card] to overwrite, do you want to use it? ”

A system prompt pops up.

Fang Lang fell into deep thought, and after half a sound of contemplation.

He calmed down and understood that the [Root Bone Card] would not change his own Root Bone, and he still had to rely on switching the Bond State to obtain the Root Bone's improvement, but it would change the data to make it appear to outsiders that his Root Bone...... Not ordinary.

Although there is a slight regret, the appearance of the root bone card can at least solve a thorny problem that Fang Lang has to face temporarily.

Moreover, now that there is a [Root Bone Card], after the system level is high, will there be the ability to completely change the root bone?

Fang Lang still has some expectations.

"Use."

"Ding! The root bone data is being modified, and it is estimated that it will take 24 hours, so please wait patiently......"

A system prompt pops up, and then falls silent.

Fang Lang closed his eyes and slowly exhaled.

Next, let's wait for the good news.

Then, Fang Lang opened his eyes, his eyes were in the dark room, he seemed very calm, he took out a spirit crystal provided by the system, and began to absorb it slowly.

Punch cards, forging cards, and triple amplification cards are all ready.

If you want to get the last capital to hit the champion in the scientific examination, you have to look at tomorrow.

The night was peaceful.

This night, but it is destined to be unpeaceful.

For every top 50 of Luojiang Academy's gold list, tomorrow's Yunling Pagoda cultivation can be said to be an important process of turning the road of cultivation.

So, they are excited and can't sleep.

Even Fang Lang is the same.

The task released by the system allowed him to challenge his own limits, but Fang Lang understood that he was not just for the task, he wanted to hit the top of the scientific examination, and he had to break through the limit!

This night, the battle between Yu and the honest boy in the blacksmith shop made Fang Lang truly understand that he is far from those geniuses who have the qualifications to impact the top prize in the scientific examination.

He didn't even have the qualifications to attack the champion, because he wasn't even a sword master.

It was precisely in this way that Fang Lang understood the gap and understood the importance of the Yunling Pagoda to him.

In the darkness, Fang Lang opened his eyes, let go of his palm, and the fragments of the spirit crystal in his palm rose all over the ground.

Look at the dim horizon that is gradually turning white.

Under Fang Lang's eyes, there was a spark, as if he was preparing to burn the prairie fire.

Everything is ready, just wait for the dawn!
